If you are keen to try out the new location of Natural Exotic Fish Fishing Pond (NEFFP) in Behrang but still unsure of where, how, what and when, this entry could help you out.
Travelling from K.L City to Behrang on a busy weekday morning, we documented our entire trip from start to end with hopes it will help you get an understanding of what to expect when you get there. As we were testing out the new pond, most of its facilities are yet to be up and running therefore for our trip, we needed to make a pit stop for bait in Jalan Pasar, Pudu, before heading to the pond.
Watch the Vlog of our trip! More information on the pond is available below.
How To Get There?
We set our GPS to the Al-Hidayah Mosque in Behrang which is located right by the paved road leading to the NEFFP. Refer to the Google Maps location attached below.
Facilities
- Covered Carpark
- Halal Restaurant (waiting certification) – Located at the entrance
- Fishing Platform – Anglers can now fish without being distracted by Restaurant-Goers
- Small Cafe – Located above the fishing platform, anglers will not need walk to the restaurant for a quick bite or drink
- Vending Machine – Located on the fishing platform with selection of drinks like Coca Cola, 100 Plus & Mineral water. Do take note that it is a little costly.
- Toilets – Located in the middle of the fishing platform, no more running marathons if the fish bites!
- Rod Stand – Fixed into the concrete platform, anglers need not worry about accidentally lifting it off the ground
- Zinc Shelter – The platform is well covered, sheltering anglers from the elements
- Ample Ashtray and Rubbish Bin on platform.
- Water hose to wash hands and keep area clean on every pillar of the platform.

What To Expect?
Deep diving battles, broken rods, aching backs, tangled lines and more species to strike off ones list. The NEFFP in Behrang promises an exciting, adrenaline pumping good time.

Hello Dydy, very nice to be acquainted with a reader from Brunei! The Natural Exotic Fish Fishing Pond is still in operation in Behrang, Tanjung Malim. The previous location which was Rawang, is permanently closed.
If you are planning to visit, we hope you will enjoy your battles in the Natural Exotic Pond!
Best,
Shamin, The Milkfish Lady
